Contract tenure map
One lane per player, one bar per status period, plotted from 2025 to today. Current members sit on top with open contracts running to the right edge; former players follow in reverse departure order. Colour marks the status each period was held in, and a gap in a lane is time away from the organisation. Service counts starter, stand-in and coach periods; bench time is shown separately and never added to it (open contracts on the active roster average 11m of service today). Hover a bar for that period's dates and, when recorded, its maps and the player's rating with FUT; tap a lane for the full contract record. The same moves appear in the transfer ledger below.

Tactical dossier
FUT Esports, formerly known as Futbolist, is a Turkish esports organisation whose Counter-Strike 2 team competes in the European region and won PGL Bucharest 2026. Its current lineup is built around the former Natus Vincere Junior core signed in August 2025, with Krabeni calling the shots and András "coolio" Fercsák as head coach.
FUT entered Counter-Strike 2 on 26 May 2025, eight years after Cesur Sünnetçioğlu and Sinan Dursunoğlu founded the organisation as Futbolist in April 2017. The first lineup was misutaaa, devoduvek, drac, JACKZ and Nivera, coached by falco.
It lasted barely two months. On 1 August 2025 FUT benched everyone except misutaaa, and in early August it released devoduvek, drac, JACKZ, Nivera and falco. Transfer records show JACKZ, devoduvek, drac and falco moving on to Mousquetaires.
On 1 August 2025 FUT signed the Natus Vincere Junior roster in one move: dem0n, Krabeni, cmtry and dziugss, with coolio as coach. misutaaa filled the fifth slot for three weeks. On 22 August 2025 he was benched and lauNX arrived from Nexus Gaming; misutaaa left on 18 September 2025 and later surfaced at GenOne.
The new group picked up results quickly in late 2025. FUT won Digital Crusade DraculaN Season 3, finished second at DreamHack Knockout Stockholm 2025 and won Galaxy Battle 2025 Phase 5.
As of November 2026, FUT's starting five are Krabeni, dem0n, dziugss, xfl0ud and SunPayus. Krabeni, from Kosovo, is the team's in-game leader. dem0n is Ukrainian, dziugss Lithuanian and xfl0ud Turkish.
SunPayus is the newest arrival. FUT announced Álvaro "SunPayus" García, a Spanish player, as its new AWPer on 1 October 2026, signing him from G2 Esports. lauNX remains with the organisation as an inactive player after being moved to the bench in July 2026.
András "coolio" Fercsák, from Hungary, has been FUT's head coach since 1 August 2025; he came over with the Natus Vincere Junior players. When lauNX was unavailable for BLAST Rivals 2026 Season 1, coolio stood in as the fifth player, and FUT finished last.
The staff grew in 2026. Maksymilian "trochu" Trocha joined as assistant coach on 13 February 2026, a month after analyst zander left on 9 January. Nathan "Garrixer" Cloirec has managed the team since the CS2 project began in May 2025.
The first swap came in the summer. On 7 July 2026 FUT benched lauNX and signed xfl0ud from HEROIC. Contract news followed: extensions for dem0n, coolio and dziugss were reported on 26 August 2026, and for Krabeni on 7 September 2026.
Then the AWP changed hands. On 1 October 2026 FUT benched cmtry and brought in SunPayus. Twelve days later, on 13 October 2026, Astralis announced cmtry as one of its two new players. Reports on 8 October had said the deal was a loan.
FUT has played one Major so far: IEM Cologne Major 2026. The team entered in Stage 2 and beat G2 to reach Stage 3. There it lost its first two matches, to Vitality and G2, then kept its run alive with wins over B8 and MOUZ. BetBoom won the deciding match 2-0 on 15 June 2026, so FUT left Cologne without a playoff appearance.
The next Major is PGL Major Singapore 2026, where FUT is listed in Stage 2 from 28 November. Player eligibility is still an open question: reports on 29 October 2026 said coolio had publicly asked Valve to grant exceptions to SunPayus and cmtry under the Major's registration rules.
2025 brought two tournament wins and a final:
2026 is the year FUT broke through at big LANs. The team placed 1-2nd in ESL Pro League Season 23 Stage 1, then beat MOUZ in the Finals before losing the semi-final to Natus Vincere and the third-place match to Astralis in overtime.
PGL Bucharest 2026, played from 4 to 11 April, is the team's first notable LAN trophy. FUT beat B8 in the quarter-final and The MongolZ in the semi-final, then took the title against Astralis. cmtry was named the event's MVP.
The Esports World Cup 2026 brought a second big final. FUT came through a reverse sweep of magic, swept MOUZ 2-0 and edged FURIA 2-1 in the semi-final. Team Spirit won the final 3-1 on 23 August 2026.
FUT's map numbers on this page cover 30 maps played between 18 July and mid-October 2026, all of them before SunPayus made his debut. Ancient is the base of the pool: it was the most-played map in that window, at 5 wins and 4 losses, and FUT picked it 9 times. Mirage went 5-0. Anubis was even at 2-2.
Dust II is the clear weak spot. FUT went 2-5 on it and banned it 12 times, more than any other map. Nuke finished 1-3, and the window contains no Inferno maps at all.
During PGL Cluj-Napoca 2026, MOUZ's Brollan said FUT's very in-your-face approach had caught his side off guard. In March, cmtry admitted that rivals were starting to read the team's style.
PGL Masters Bucharest 2026 was the first event with SunPayus. FUT beat TYLOO, Liquid and Vitality to reach the playoffs, then lost the quarter-final 0-2 to Nemiga on 29 October 2026 and finished 5-8th. Before that, BLAST Open Porto 2026 had ended at 7-8th.
In the world ranking of 2 November 2026 FUT sits #8, two places below its peak of #6. The global Valve Regional Standings of 6 November 2026 put FUT #10; its best VRS position is #3. Next up is BLAST Rivals 2026 Season 2 in Hong Kong, opening against Team Spirit on 11 November, followed by the Singapore Major and PGL Bucharest 2027 in January.
